Just to update on my sauerkraut experiment. A few weeks ago, I tried a home-made sauerkraut recipe: sliced cabbage mixed with sea salt, then packed into a jar, closed with a lid and allowed to sit on my table for a week. The instructions said to put it into "cold storage" or the refrigerator after that time. I did it had been sitting in the frig for about 2 weeks. I tried it last night......
It was great! It wasn't too salty, it wasn't too sour. It was still crunchy and had a bit of sweetness that store bought sauerkraut doesn't have. I'll have to try making it again in the fall.
